Ive been struggling to find alternatives for cross platform desktop application development and can't keep thinking to myself : "why is Java, c++ and python so hard or confusing compared to autohotkey?"
I mean the complexity of these languages compared to AHK is like: you have time to learn and develop a working app in AHK while you still can't choose what other language would be worth learning....
Im hours in Java learning on Udemy for example and I still can't make a window show up with good looking native-like windows controls. Then you have all these frameworks, opinion based Quora 2015 posts, no voice over videos on YouTube....
Another wierd thing: Java is one of the most popular language and I cant find tutorials to show it in simple ways like a working example, while I can find anything I need for Autohotkey in a couple of hours with provided source code.. what the heck.

AHK is so good that starting with it is like eating desert before eating your diner

Stokes' tape collection consisted of 24/7-coverage of Fox, MSNBC, CNN, C-SPAN, CNBC and other networks—recorded on as many
as eight separate VCR machines stationed throughout her house.
She had a husband and children, and family outings were planned around the length of a VHS tape.
Every six hours when the tapes would be ending, Stokes and her husband would run around the house to switch them out—even cutting short meals at restaurants to make it home to switch out tapes in time.
Later in life when she was not as agile, Stokes trained a helper to do the task for her.
The archives ultimately grew to live on 71,716 (originally erroneously reported as 140,000 in the media) VHS and Betamax tapes stacked in Stokes' home,
as well as apartments she rented just to store them.

20190821 Greenland: Trump criticises 'nasty' Denmark over cancelled visithttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-49423968
US President Donald Trump has called the Danish leader "nasty" after she rebuffed his idea of buying Greenland.
He lashed out hours after Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said she was "sorry" that Mr Trump had abruptly called off a state visit to Denmark.
She has dismissed the suggestion of such a land deal as "absurd".
Queen Margrethe II invited Mr Trump to visit Denmark on 2 September, and the manner of his cancellation has stunned the Scandinavian nation.

While US President Donald Trump is waking up with his announcement to buy Greenland,
Defense Secretary Trine Bramsen warns that the Danish defense presence in the Arctic will be strengthened in the coming years.
She points out the Arctic as one of the top five security policy challenges for Denmark in line with the threat
of terror, cyber attacks, uncontrolled migrant flows and an aggressive Russia.
"As the ice melts due to climate change, major changes are taking place and new threat images are being created to the north.
The Arctic's presence in the Arctic will be strengthened in the coming years in response to this development to ensure stability and security," says Trine Bramsen.

Within 15 years, the average annual temperature has risen by about five degrees and has melted the ice.
This releases mineral wealth: precious stones, iron ore, oil, gold, copper, uranium and rare earths, which are needed for the booming construction of rechargeable batteries.
Trump : The global warming has its good!

Work began on the 144m Akademik Lomonosov in Saint Petersburg in 2006.
But environmental groups have long warned of the dangers of the project, dubbing it a potential "Chernobyl on ice" and a "nuclear Titanic."
When it arrives in Pevek, a town of 5,000 in the Siberian region of Chukotka, it will replace a local nuclear plant and a closed coal plant.
It is due to go into operation by the end of year, mainly serving the region's oil platforms as Russia develops the exploitation of hydrocarbons in the Arctic.

Chen Dayuan - an expert at the Chinese Academy of Sciences who has been researching giant panda cloning for 20 years
- said there could even be scope for cats to give birth to cloned baby pandas, which are smaller than baby cats despite their large size when fully grown.
The first major success in animal cloning was Dolly the sheep, born in Britain in 1996 as the first mammal cloned from an adult cell.
In 2005, researchers in South Korea cloned the first dog. The Sooam Biotech Research Foundation in Seoul says it has cloned some 800 pets and charges US$100,000 each.

Make market volatility great again?
Analysts at JPMorgan Chase & Co. have created an index to gauge the impact of Donald Trump’s tweets on U.S. interest rates, which they say is on the rise.
The ‘Volfefe Index’, named after Trump’s mysterious ‘covfefe’ tweet, suggests that the president’s tweets are having a statistically significant impact on Treasury yields.
The number of market-moving Trump tweets has ballooned in the past month, with those including words such as
‘China,’ ‘billion,’ ‘products,’ ‘democrats,’ and ‘great,’ most likely to affect prices, the analysts found.

Eixample district of Barcelona, Spain
Report predicts radical scheme could cut air pollution by a quarter as other cities including Seattle prepare to follow suit
Barcelona could save hundreds of lives and cut air pollution by a quarter if it fully implements its radical superblocks scheme to reduce traffic, a new report claims.
A study carried out by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health calculates that the city could prevent
667 premature deaths every year if it created all 503 superblocks envisaged in its initial plan – up from the current six schemes.
